Behind the Scenes: Diddy and Mase at OVO Festival

Posted byBy Leo | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

Drake created some epic moments this week, not just for his city, but for all of hip-hop with his OVO Festival in Toronto.  The night was packed with an all-star line up and one of the most memorable moments was when Drake brought out Diddy, who in turn brought out Mase.

Diddy and Mase performed ’90s Bad Boy hits like “Feel So Good,” “Victory,” and “Mo’ Money Mo’ Problems,” among others. Diddy’s Revolt TV was there to catch it all. From the dressing room to the onstage performance, Revolt aired those behind-the -scenes moments in the video above.

According to xxlmag.com:

“In this behind-the-scenes footage, Diddy and Mase are seen catching up like old times. Then, it cuts to their memorable performance as they played joints such as ‘Feels So Good.’

“Nine years later, the pair demonstrate a bond that will last forever”.

It’s been a hip-hop reunion week, as we saw Jay Z and long-time business partner and friend Dame Dash together for the first time in years.

 

It’s great to see people like Diddy and Mase, and Jay Z and Dash back together. It sets the right example for young people, proving that relationships can last for long time and that beefs don’t have to last forever.

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
